Method for Automated Exterior Panel Design via Integration of Architectural Drawings and Databases
This technology provides an automated design method for building exterior panels. It loads architectural drawings to identify building information, cross-references data from exterior panel and fastener databases, and automatically generates design specifications tailored to specific load requirements.
Conventional exterior panel design relies on manual input of load conditions and materials, which is time-consuming and prone to errors.
By integrating architectural drawings with material databases to automate the design process, this technology reduces design time and improves accuracy in building exterior construction.
Key Features:
- Architectural drawing loading module: Loads drawings to identify installation areas and building information, including wind and seismic loads.
- Exterior panel design generation module: Retrieves exterior panel specifications, including load strength and bending load data, from the exterior panel database.
- Exterior panel design generation module: Retrieves specific fastener information from the fastener database.
- Exterior panel design generation module: Generates final exterior panel design specifications using the retrieved panel and fastener data.
